Sorry I disagree with you. We towed a Toyota Highlander 4 wheels down with a Remco lube pump for over 60,000 miles without incident. Maybe some people have had problems, but we never had any. We would not hesitate to do it again if necessary.
I still think it is foolish to buy a new vehicle intending to use it as a toad if it needs some type of modification. I had a drive shaft disconnect on my S-10, hated it. If you want to buy potential problems/issues, have at it.
